Dr. Abi is by far the best vet I have ever brought a pet to! Not only is she extremely compassionate, but she is also very knowledgeable and passionate about what she does. Having worked with her a few years back, I can attest to how wonderful and trustworthy she is!

My two dogs were patients of Dr. Abi's at her previous practice for many years. During that time, we saw a revolving door of providers, but the care we received was always excellent. I knew the day would eventually come when I’d walk in and not see Dr. Abi’s picture on the wall anymore, and about a year and a half ago, that day arrived. While I was sad to see her leave, I was thrilled to learn she was starting her own practice! At the time, I decided to stay with our current clinic out of comfort, familiarity, and loyalty. Fast forward to this past autumn: one of my boys was diagnosed with an asymptomatic liver illness that showed up on his yearly bloodwork. It quickly became a mystery illness—tests kept piling up with no clear answers, and the costs were adding up fast. Not only was I scared for my old man, but the financial burden was also becoming overwhelming. On top of that, I was seeing a new provider I just wasn’t connecting with (which happens, and that’s okay). With so much weighing on me, I knew I needed a second opinion before agreeing to any further tests, and I immediately thought of Dr. Abi. When I called to make an appointment, the staff member who took my call was incredibly kind, and when Dr. Abi saw it was me on the phone, she personally took over the call. Hearing her voice again brought me so much reassurance—I’m pretty sure I cried because it felt like a weight had been lifted, even though we still didn’t have any answers. At our appointment, Dr. Abi agreed with the previous provider’s suggestion to run a few more tests just to be safe, which I agreed to. The results were mostly inconclusive, but her approach from there resonated deeply with me. She advised me to focus on treating my boy as if every day was his best day—to address what was bothering him now (his arthritis) and deal with anything else if it came up later. That felt right to me, and I’m happy to say he’s been doing fine since. After that experience, I decided to make the full switch to Dr. Abi’s new practice, HVP-Silver Lake, for both of my boys. Right now, it’s just Dr. Abi and another provider, but I trust her completely to lead her team. If she hires you, you’re probably not only damn good at what you do but also aligned with her compassionate and thoughtful medical approach. Shoutout to her incredible techs and staff, who have been nothing short of amazing every time I’ve reached out. Everything about making this switch feels right, and I’m so happy to support Dr. Abi and her growing practice. She’s truly one of a kind.
